Wode Maya earns $100,000 monthly from content
Ghanaian social media personality Wode Maya has announced that his income from various online platforms can peak at $100,000 in just one month.
Wode Maya emphasised the importance of understanding the unique algorithms and audience engagement strategies for each social media platform to maximise earning potential.
“If you use social media wisely, it can change everything for you. The platforms where you don’t see me actively engaged are the ones that aren’t generating revenue for me,” he noted, indicating a strategic approach to his online presence.
When discussing his primary income sources, Wode Maya clarified that not all social media platforms are equally profitable for him.
“I don’t generate income from TikTok. Instead, the majority of my earnings come from YouTube and Facebook,” he stated, pointing to the platforms that align best with his content and audience.

“I want to be as authentic as I can be, and I’m very cautious about collaborating with brands, as they often impose restrictions that can dilute my genuine voice.”
